    At Cromwell Hospital’s Long Covid Clinic, a multidisciplinary team of consultants are learning lessons from the virus. Dr Brian O’Connor, a consultant in respiratory medicine, and consultant psychiatrist Dr Rajeev Dhar are part of the multidisciplinary Long Covid team at Cromwell Hospital. “We established the clinic because, between the various consultants, we recognised we had an increasing number of mutual patients who had symptoms that didn’t add up,” he explains. “You’d have patients with psychological symptoms, such as low-grade levels of anxiety and depression, but they would also display odd physical symptoms such as palpitations or breathlessness when they lay down.” The collaboration between consultants across the fields of respiratory medicine, cardiology, neurology and psychiatry has allowed them to pool information and recognise symptom patterns quickly. Both Dr O’Connor and Dr Dhar believe the holistic, multidisciplinary treatment being delivered at the clinic could have a longer-term effect — one that involves a fundamental change in attitudes and perspective. “Medicine often focuses on treating symptoms,” Dr Dhar explains, “but long Covid has made us think about how we help people to function better. Our approach is now focused on how people are functioning, because that tells us how well we’re managing the symptoms.”

    More than a million people in the UK are now living with prolonged symptoms of Covid-19,[1] also referred to as Long Covid, including at least 122,000 NHS staff.[2] With many struggling to come to terms with life-changing health challenges, Long Covid is considered by some to be the next pandemic. Good health information has the power to educate, influence and clarify; all of which are critical to effectively responding to public health crises and keeping patients safe. But the absence of good information can leave patients, staff and the wider public feeling confused and unsupported, and can widen health inequalities.  In this blog, Patient Safety Learning has identified four key areas where better information could help improve care for those living with Long Covid: Symptoms of Long Covid Long Covid assessment centres Education and awareness Performance and effectiveness.

The study used the responses of people living with Long Covid to: develop a resource with advice for people accessing services for Long Covid. write guidance for people providing services relevant to people with Long Covid. write recommendations to inform policy and service design that relate to Long Covid and other impacts of the pandemic. plan a series of short podcasts, interviewing people who have lived experience of Long Covid.

He describes his own experience of Long Covid, which rendered him unable to work for months, and highlights that we should not be surprised by the prevalence of Long Covid, as all epidemics result in long-term illness for many people. He draws attention to parts of the political system 'not believing in' Long Covid and highlights the damage caused by psychologising the condition. Finally, he points to the need for more research to better understand Long Covid symptoms.

    In the wake of new variants and the relentless spread of Covid-19, understanding the complex nature of Long Covid is crucial. In this article, I aim to present useful information on the risk factors, plausible pathophysiological mechanisms and treatment of Long Covid. The obscure nature of Long Covid is a conundrum both for doctors and patients. To mitigate the burden of Long Covid, early identification of disease signs, appropriate treatment and timely access to rehabilitation care is vital. I believe that strengthening the 4 Rs (Reporting, Recognition, Rehabilitation and Research) through close collaboration between government organisations, pharmaceutical industries, patients and health care providers could reduce the impact of Long Covid.
